This soup is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. I pureed some of the vegetables and added them to the soup, and my kids didn't even notice!

I'm a vegetarian, so I substituted vegetable broth for the chicken broth. The soup was still delicious!

This soup is a great way to use up leftover cheese. I always have a few odds and ends of cheese in my fridge, and this soup is a great way to use them up.
